It really makes you wonder why there hasn’t […]

It is a 2007 Kawasaki Ninja 250R with about 400 miles on it. Here I am test riding it. I think I got a decent deal. Cost about ~$2k which I split with my girlfriend, but with title transfer, taxes, etc came to around $2.4k. Add in cost of motorcycle gear, insurance and the $125 […]

Finished day 2 with 63k and finished day 3 with 53k. There’s about 1200 people left going into day 4 and I’m likely going to need a double up to cash, so if there’s one time I’d like to run good it’s in the next couple of hours. In day 2 I wasn’t really patient […]

Ended up getting 20th in the 6max Limit Hold’em for my only cash so far. It was definitely exciting and fun, but not the place I was looking for. I played with a number big name pros in this event including Justin Bonomo, Michael Binger, Phil Gordon and a couple others. Most of these online […]
